Roguecast Episode 107.1: Our Last Best Hope

roguecastolbh1

We’ll have a regular episode this week as well, but with our longtime volunteer/theme song creator Jarek Stuart entering the police academy, we sat down for another game of Our Last Best Hope and we recorded it!

It’s not looking great for our heroes. One of them has fallen, their resources are shattered, the plot they’ve been chasing turns out to have a whole different bad guy, and it’s possible they won’t succeed, let alone make it out alive! Find out in our final episode of Our Last Best Hope!

So join Jarek (Gray Wolf), Randy (Eclipse), Dave (Dr. Amygdala) and Nick (Igaluk) as their four superheroes are the last hope of a world threatened with nuclear annihilation by a rogue commander in chief. That’s right, it’s superhero role-playing by way of disaster movies, courtesy of Our Last Best Hope. You can hear part one here and part two here.

We hope you enjoy!

Roguecast Episode 105

roguecastWednesday, March 15th: This week Diamond decided to play a fun prank on us and delay our comics by 24 hours. Good news is, by the time you read this (unless you’re reading it super-early on Wednesday morning before we open) we will have comics, but we didn’t have them early to talk about them! Instead we talked about the Civil War trailer, the air date for Luke Cage, renewals at The CW and lots more! Plus, more about our semi-annual March movie challenge, covering a bunch of movies we’ve been watching lately!

Roguecast Episode 105.1 Our Last Best Hope

roguecastolbh1

We’ll have a regular episode this week as well, but with our longtime volunteer/theme song creator Jarek Stuart headed to the police academy in a couple weeks, we sat down for another game of Our Last Best Hope and we recorded it!

So join Jarek (Gray Wolf), Randy (Eclipse), Dave (Dr. Amygdala) and Nick (Igaluk) as their four superheroes are the last hope of a world threatened with nuclear annihilation by a rogue commander in chief. That’s right, it’s superhero role-playing by way of disaster movies, courtesy of Our Last Best Hope. Last time we played, we played a scenario where an Air Force officer lead a team of doctors to stop time-traveling giant killer robots, and we recorded the setup and character-building, and you can hear parts one and two of that here. For this one, we didn’t record all the setup, but just the adventure itself.

We’ll break these out over the next couple weeks as special episodes. We hope you enjoy!
